From the moment you step inside, you'll be captivated by the elegant hardwood floors that flow throughout, including the cozy bedrooms. The primary suite is a luxurious escape, featuring a spacious ensuite with a large vanity and sleek ceramic tile flooring—perfect for unwinding in style. Downstairs, the inviting rec room offers a second living space, complete with plenty of seating, a TV, and an electric fireplace for those relaxing evenings. Need to catch up on work? The fully equipped home office, with a desk, external monitor, and wireless printer, has you covered. Plus, enjoy endless fun with a foosball table, board games, cards, and a library of books to keep you entertained indoors. Step outside to enjoy lawn games in the backyard which is the ideal size for both kids and dogs to roam freely. Gather around the fire pit for cozy nights under the stars. And with The Invisible Fence in place, your furry friend can join the fun if they have a compatible collar. After a sun-soaked day at the beach, refresh yourself in the enclosed outdoor shower, then let your cares melt away with a soak in the bubbling hot tub. Guests at OBX Beach Gnome enjoy unbeatable perks: Walk or bike to the scenic Bay Drive multi-use path, just a quarter mile away. Less than a half-mile stroll to the Avalon Fishing Pier, with plenty of beach parking. Savor delicious seafood at Awful Arthur’s or groove to live music at the Avalon Pier—both just steps away. Enjoy community sound access, perfect for launching kayaks or paddleboards, or simply bask in the breathtaking waterfront sunsets. The OBX Beach Gnome is loved for its quiet neighborhood charm and unbeatable location in Kill Devil Hills—right in the sweet spot between the ocean and the sound. You can catch sunrise with your coffee and sunset with your cocktail, all without leaving the neighborhood. Inside, you'll find TVs in every room, a relaxing hot tub, a fire pit for s'mores and stories, and a downstairs rec room that teens claim as their kingdom. A starter kit of toilet paper and a roll of paper towels is provided—enough to get you settled, but not stocked for a full week. And a quick note: the house tends to be better supplied in the off-season and early summer. By late August, the gnomes are running on fumes and back-to-back summer bookings make it hard to keep every drawer as full as their beards. The OBX Beach Gnome is more than just a home -it’s a beachy escape ready for adventure and relaxation! #obx #obxbeachgnome #familyvacation #familybeachtrip #beach #NCBeaches #killdevilhills ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: Internet access ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 9 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 4 steps to reach entrance - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping on request - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the sea ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Foosball table ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Unit size: 1,550 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117060000/117058600/117058583/b8655fb8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 'Loophole' + Oceanfront + Historic Cottage + Nags Head NC Nags Head - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-18&endDate=2026-02-19&selected=117058583&PinnedHotelID=117058583&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115630000/115627000/115626989/c6521898.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Wave Haven - Bali Style!
